Results

At the start of round 1, CrazyStone and ManyFaces1 were not connected to KGS. However RĂ©mi Coulom was connected, and he was able to get CrazyStone working immediately.

A few minutes after round 1 had started and I had time to think, I realised that I was in no state to be out of bed. I was suffering from a norovirus infection, and went back to bed and slept. At 14:30 I woke up and switched on my computer again in time to see CrazyStone win its second game against Zen19S. So, I regret that I have no comments on any of the games. Fortunately, nothing needed my attention.
